  1. So i picked up an ancient Minicraft/Hasegawa P51D kit from a local thrift store. While popping apart wings and such for cleaning and re-gluing i came across a signature inside the wing. Chris Wilson and Ross Hurt "Mustang Builders Inc." Zacto man could you add any input to this if it rings a bell. I know many years back you cleared your stash at one of the union station contests. is it possible i have come across one of your old works in a roundabout way. There were 2 fuselages in the kit one had been sanded and the fuselage seams were being filled too. one kit was silver plastic one grey. the grey one had the putty work done but the silver one had been signed.

     

  2. I am recreating a specific aircraft i have worked on and recently bought the heller F16D lit . Overall its OK and i can fix/replace most issues i have with it. However the PW exhaust supplied in the kit is too cone shaped and looks like the augmenter is closed. If anyone has a spare augmenter from an old hasegawa build or other please let me know. i know alot of Hasegawa and Kinetic kits come with GE or Pratt options. 

  3. Id do it if i could fins a Block 42 F16D. My wife bought a decal set for me a few years back...for the 63fs at Luke AFB which is a unit i was in. They were home to 90-778 the FIRST US F16D to get an A/A kill, AIM 120 kill and BVR. on a mig 25. Lo and behold the Hasegawa sharkmouth 1/48 kit is discontinued...

    Cant find a decent earlier block 42 F16D kit to save my arse now

     

  4. Balaton model 1/72 resin M1070 kit with revell T-72 added. I didnt add much to the HET and the 72 is straight out of the box. Scratch built some stowage for the HET like drink coolers and traffic cones. 2 coolers are inside it though and can only be seen in person.

  5. looks like its a full metal model. Most likely made to order. Research Kenny Kong. He made an abrams and M-60 in the same scale about 5 or 6 years ago. This could be more of his work. They are kits but made for high end RC use. Look at some of the RC tank forums out there. It may give you better leads. I havent been into RC tanks in 3 or 4 years myself.
